Hi, changing name in birth certificate is a different procedure. But first, mention details such as – how old is the child? And does he/she has any important documents like Passport or Aadhaar is done? If yes in which name?

I’m Sirisha . my parents changed my name when I was minor( it was not legally registed ). All my schooling certificate shows Sirisha but i had a property with my old name ( tulasi). I had no certificate with the name tulasi . so what I have to do know ?

Only affidavit wouldn’t suffice for minor’s legal name change. You will have to get it published in Gazette to avoid hassles while applying for passport, etc. We can make the process easier for you. Click the link given and submit your details to get our Name Change Package [ https://legaldesk.com/name-change-package ] Hope this helps…
